Victoria Harbor, county of Simcoe,
high fishery officer. David Lincoln,
manager of S. III. Davis IL Co.'S fish
rigs, inquired if he had any more IT,
ties, if so, to let them loose. Mr..
Lincoln also demanded of the high
fishery officer to show by what au-
thority he had seized property belong
ing to an American citizen. The high
fishery officer said he did not have to
show his authority and stated he was
the government. A lively scene en-
sued, during which the high fishery
officer threatened TO seize the Remora
and arrest Mr.. Lincoln. He was in
formed that the Remora was an Amer
lean vessel, that she was in Canadian
waters lawfully, and that he must re-
member there were over 10000, 900
people back of her. The high fishery
officer and his army therefore conclud-
ed not to NEEDLE with the Remora
then, but they hung on to the fish.
Three sail-boats belonging to Fred
Lincoln and three sail-boats belonging
to Malcolm McLain were also seized.
Fred Lincoln is a citizen of this place
and took his rig over to Georgian
bay some weeks ago. He entered his
boats in accordance with Canadian
laws, took out a fishery license, and,
in reality, his fishing rig is a Canadi-
an one, and his case is not an interna-
tional one.
As regards 8. H. Davis q Co., we
believe the Canadian official has COM
mitted bad blunder. The firm had
bought the fish fairly and honestly,
and the fish were their property just
as much as if they had gone to Can
ada and bought horse or bushel
of wheat. The result will probably
be that the Canadian government will
find that they have no right or title
to the fish seized, and will repay the
firm what they have lost through the
heedlessness of an official, who relied
on what was told him by an envious
firm of fish buyers.

Another Improvement.

1t is our pleasant duty, this week,
to record another improvement in the
communications between Alpena and
Detroit, and it must certainly be a
source of satisfaction to old residents
of Alpena, to know that the journey
from Alpena to Detroit can be made
in hours and 55 minutes. 1t is a
great advance from few years ago,
when trip to Detroit was consider
able of an event. The new railroad
time went into effect last Sunday
night, when the first night train from
this city left for Detroit, at 9:15 p. NJ.
The train consisted of an engine, bag
gage car, passenger coach and a Wag-
ner sleeper At Alger the sleeping
car was transferred to a Michigan
Central train and hauled to Detroit,
arriving there Monday morning at II
o'clock.
A change was also made in the mail
train. Commencing Monday morn
ing, it left this city at TAO o'clock in
the morning and arrives at Detroit at
at 5:35 in the afternoon the entire
train, except engine, going through to
Detroit. The day train now arrives
at this city at 1880 o'clock in the even
ing-half an hour earlier than it did
previous to Monday last-leaving De-
troit at $3.50 A. NJ.
The night train leaves Detroit at
$40 at night and arrives in this city
at 6:45 the next morning. A trip to
Detroit can now be taken, and a per-
son only loose one days time. For
instance, he can leave here at night,
go to bed on the sleeper, wake up next
morning in Detroit, has six hours to
transact business in that city, gets
aboard the train at night, engages
another sleeping car bed, and when
he awakes the next morning he is at
home. OF course there is no compul-
sion about sleeping while OH the cars.
He can awake as many times as he
pleases, and he need not 60 to sleep at
all if he so prefers. IF passenger is
given to loud snoring, he must ar
range for such concerts with his fell
low passengers, or else be encored with
boots, shoes, and other articles con-
venient.
The present manner Of running
trains will be Of much benefit to bus
mess men of other cities who have
business here. He can leave Detroit
at $40 p. NJ, be at Alpena at 6:45 A. NJ,
can have over II hours to do business,
buy several million feet of lumber,
and be at Detroit the next forenoon.
1t will also be very convenient for
persons living along the railroad.
They can come here, purchase their
supplies, and return home the same
day.

The Canadian Government Steals Four
Cars of Fish from S. H. Davis & Co.

For some weeks past the propeller
Remora has been running between
French river, in Georgian Bay, and
this port. She was used to bring fish
from the Georgian Bay fisheries to
Alpena, from whence they were taken
to Detroit. The firm of S. III. Davis
~ Co. do not fish in Canadian waters,
neither do they employ men to fish
there. The firm merely buys fish of
the fishermen in that section, and be-
fore they went there, Canadian fish
buyer had O. monopoly of the fish buy.
ing in that region. There being no OPP
position the Canadian fish buyer could
get the fish at his own price-a very
low one. The entry of the Remora
raised the price of fish. The Canadi-
an fish buyer then made COM
plant to the Canadian officials, charg-
ing S. III. Davis q Co. with fishing in
Canadian waters.
On Thursday last man, attended
Dy an army consisting of two soldiers
and four policemen, appeared at the
place where the Remora bought her
fish. The army was formidsbly arm
ed with old muskets. A raid was at
once made on the property of s. II.
Davis ~ Co., and four cars contain
ing about FIVE tons of fish were cap
tured. The capture was effected with
out loss Of life. The man in charge
